Darrelle Revis told the New York Post that his surgical wrist is hurting his ability to play press coverage.
This is news to Todd Bowles, who found about this problem yesterday via a question in his daily presser.
“I haven’t gotten any indication from treatment or anything else that it was (injured),” Bowles said. “But if it’s sore, he’s keeping it to himself. If he’s told you guys, I haven’t heard anything.”
Why would a player communicate an injury problem to a reporter but not his coach?
That is somewhat bizarre.
Revis, or any other player, needs to be honest with his coach about what is bothering him, especially if it’s impacting how he plays the game.
